TAM 9 Wishlist

Some of the folks on my TAM9 wish list not previously mentioned…

Jan Harold Brunvand
Cecil Adams (but Ed Zotti might have to do)
Barbara and David Mikkelson
Kobe Boykins
Donald Johanson
David Attenborough
Ricky Gervais
Professor Brian Cox
 
- Stephen Fry would be, well, amazing.
- Fewer panels. I was actually really looking forward to those, and they were the most disappointing part for me. Much more focus from individuals.
- Perhaps consider the TEDtalk 20 minute thing. Perhaps a tight TED20+10QA.
- More Moon Hoaxer and Healer guy types... although I don't know how you'd manage that. But boy did they bring a little life to the party. You could almost hear gears grinding when it started to become obvious that something non-standard was developing in real time...
- I thought SouthPoint was fine. I'd think the Orleans would be equally adequate. If we can move TAM to immediately prior to or post MAGIC LIVE! then I would be in heaven (well, not *heaven* per se.... but you get the idea.)
- Next year I am committed to joining Skeptics in the Tub. A fine idea that I didn't hear about until after I had other evening plans.

I was so annoyed at myself after that, for not standing up and heckling with the line "Don't be a dick". ;)
 
Yes, perfect - all sorts of t-shirt possibilities!

Here's my entry... not done yet but I'd like to have this as a shirt.

That needs to be the t-shirt, but with the real headliners listed in place of Bela Legosi...
 
Spiffy! I smell the growth of an alt-TAM-T-shirt industry.

You may want to turn off the "(Sent from my Droid Incredible, using Tapatalk. Therefore, more typos may exist in this post than usual.)" signature. It screams "dork".

Maybe I like screaming such things. Ever think of that?!

I'm going to bet that Wowbagger isn't concerned with that appearance :D
Looks like you won the bet.


(I would have ended this post with the "Sent from my Droid Incredible..." line, but this wasn't sent from there. I used a normal PC for this post. I suppose I could have faked it, but I don't like doing anything fake. Besides, if anyone is tracking the IP addresses of posts, they will find out I was lying. But, rest assured: Any post that I DO send from my Droid Incredible will have that signature on it. Though, it is also possible that I might change or reword it in the future, if I ever feel like it. Therefore there should, theoretically, be fewer typos in this post, than what would be found from a mobile one.)
 
Back on topic:

I am thinking that the duo of Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett of MST3K/Rifftrax might make good guests at TAM.
If we go with the TAM 9 From Outer Space theme then I think inviting them is almost mandatory.
